Hush, damnit! I need reasons *not* to buy the damn thing!

You're willing to sell your what? Gun or sight? Does that sight mount directly to the
gun?

The weaver rail attaches to the top of the receiver, and the red dot
sight attaches to the rail. It also has Hogue target grips, 5
magazines and a removable Volquarsten compensator. It shoots well but
I subsequently had a chance to buy a really nice customized Hi
Standard that I like even better.

Didn't know what the Volquarsten compensator was, so looked it up. Some funny
comments he

Do you still have the original grips? Did installation of the rail require removal of
the factory sights?

If you got my email of the other day, drop me an email at that address with how much
you want and pics if you have any.

Yes, I still have the original grips stashed away somewhere in my
copious collection of "stuff". The rail does not require removal of
the factory sights. When I get a chance I'll find everything, take
some pix and send you an EMAIL.

Take your time. I'm in no rush. And, thanks.

You mean like this one?
I have one on mine, but only for weight balance. I was getting too much
kidding for the wheel weights I had duc taped to my barrel :-)

There are certainly some decent, cheap red dots on the market. I have a Truglow on my MP 15/22, and it does the job. I just felt that the Ruger deserved a good sight, and the Burris was the right size and is 8 moa, which was right for it's use. The Burris also has a killer lifetime warranty. If it quits or you break it, send it to them and they'll fix or replace it, no questions asked and no receipt required. Now *that's* a warranty.
